Cretan Traditional Cooking Lessons

Reviewed By matalaman - Scotland, United Kingdom

I've been to Crete at least a dozen times. The people are wonderful, the culture fascinating, the landscape awe-inspiring and the food, the food - fabulous. I've been to many parts of the island - Maria, Stalis, Bali and Georgiopolis in the north, Matala and Agia Galini in the south and Kalo Nero in the south east where friends lived for a few years. I've visited caves and churches, gorges and beaches and several ancient sites. This year, I went further west. From Kissamos, we took a Cretan Cookery course. Picked up by mini-bus from our rented villa we spent five hours with a multi-national like-minded group of 11 people learning how to prepare a dozen or so Cretan dishes. Taught by a wonderful mother and daughter team (one a great cook, one with great English) we then had a tour of the farm / love groves / herb garden / wine store before enjoying the fruits of our labours. Later, the recipes were emailed to us. This was truly a highlight of all my times on Crete.
